Abstract
The Chief Executive's attention for the moment is riveted on the short‐term problem of weathering the tidal waves of the current inflation‐Tecession economic storm. But before many months go by he and his staff will be back at the drawing boards mapping out alternative strategies for the new 1976 long‐term corporate plan. Last year's economic forecast has been torn up, but the question remains, “What do we use in its place?”
